just gotta say that Tahir is really earning his money/reputation for our team, SA raped Netherlands like by 231 runs :D

He's really adding the missing dimension to the South African team and they're looking the team to beat at the moment. Probably a good thing they held him back and didn't play him in the last series with India. Now he's catching everyone by surprise.

That's old news.. the "fans" attacked the house of Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hassan this morning...

On another note.. Shahid Afridi is in super form.. almost 15 wickets already :blink: Bowlers like him and Malinga are very dangerous coz they have usual style and variations..

Some people take sports too seriously. :(

Thats the sub-continent for you.. cricket is not a just sport in the sub-continent..

Watching Pak-Can replay now and 3 decisions were over turned.. I love the review system.. in the old days these three obvious lbws not being given would cause the balling team the game.. just wish FIFA/UEFA do something similar in football...

The idea is good, but if such a system were introduced, then I think a stop for review will impact the game in a very adverse way. The way I see it, football is a game of speed and technique constrained by time and a stop will disrupt the flow of the game.

Great match today. I hope Sri Lanka wins :D

I don't think having something like DRS in football would hold it up any more than stoppages for injuries and so on do. Considering what is in stake in a lot of modern professional football matches, I think it's inexcusable for teams to be potentially cost massive results because of human error, when the technology exists to make the right decision.

aus v india. i expect australia to lose on their form but one can hope otherwise.

India and Australia have the same problems IMO. Great batting lineups, weak bowling lineups, with the exception of Zaheer Khan for India, and Brett Lee for Australia. My prediction is for a very close game, I wouldn't even like to guess a potential winner.

Winners of which will play Pakistan.. great bowling and so-so batting.. what a great display by the Pakistani spinners today though.. (Y) Lets see what the batsmen do now.. a good team should get 113 runs without losing any more than 2 wickets...

The windies aren't that bad, they clearly under performed. I have a sad feeling our match with Sri Lanka will be a bit one sided unless we can finally pull together a good batting and bowling performance

I feel England are a very dangerous team coz of the way they got to the QF.. reminds me of how India won the WC or how Pakistan won in 1992.. no one even thought they could win.. they barley made it to semi final and then final..

If we put a good batting and bowling performance together in the same match, we can beat anyone. The only reason for our struggles so far is that we haven't managed to do that.

And it's fantastic to see Australian dominance of world cricket brought to an end, it's good for the game

Once Gilchrist, McGrath and Symonds etc retired we all knew this would happen..

i was hoping for India to win and they did!.. just becoz i wana see Pakistan play them!.. >D and winning ofcourse!!..

We need to strengthen our batting lineup.. and we are in promising position.. Indias bowling is so so so we have a big advantage there

But their batting is in great form.. as is Pakistan bowling.. Pakistan batting needs to be at its best if they want to win this one and the wicket keeper can afford to let those easy chances go coz Ross Taylor already showed what can happen if you give good players a second or third chance...

yup exactly..

all we need to do is to make sure our first 2 players stick on the pitch and make atleast 100 runs .. because if they get out in the first few overs we get under alot of pressure and the rest of the team just follows in line. On the other side Indian batting impresses me everytime. I am a big tendulkar fan!..

    • Gf needed a new Surface and was looking at a Surface Laptop because of the Snapdragon. Seeing as it was a two year old chip she just decided to get a Lenovo Yoga 2 in 1 instead. Personally this Surface Ultra Cassis reminds me a bit of Razor. It would be interesting if it could handle proper gaming and be 17 inch.
    • No idea, frankly, I'm not into minimum requirements gaming, but it would be an interesting test to find out. Also, I just have to point out that it wasn't my intention to downplay the performance of DXVK on Linux or Linux gaming in general (despite my own experience being a bit of a mixed bag). I just thought it would be good to point out that DXVK is not Linux exclusive and that you can benefit from using it even in Windows.
    • Fastfetch 2.64 released bringing new logos and other improvements by David Uzondu Fastfetch, the popular command-line system information tool that developers created as a fast alternative to the classic Neofetch utility, has updated its codebase to version 2.64, bringing experimental scripting power, streamlined compilation options, a smarter logo renderer, and Codec module support. As noted earlier, Fastfetch can now detect hardware-accelerated video codecs across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android through this new Codec module. On Linux and BSD, the utility uses VA-API by default, with a fallback to VDPAU on Nvidia hardware if compiled with libva and libvdpau. Windows users get D3D12VA on Windows 11 or D3D11VA with Media Foundation Transforms on older systems, while macOS relies on VideoToolbox and Android utilizes AMediaCodec. You can manually toggle Vulkan Video via the config file, and the program will report both encoders and decoders unless configured otherwise. Logo support for Quasar, Origami, Origami_small, NixOS2, and BerserkArch also landed in this release. BerserkArch, if you have never heard of it, is a specialized Arch Linux derivative that targets security researchers and power users. This distro comes with an offensive security tool manager, simply called berserk, which allows users to install complex hacking toolkits with single terminal commands. Moving on, Fastfetch now has experimental scripting options for custom formats using Lua or QuickJS. The Lua integration supports versions 5.3 through 5.5, sharing a single interpreter instance across all modules so you can store variables globally. T Alternatively, if you prefer JavaScript, you can use QuickJS-ng version 0.15.0 or newer to evaluate your custom formats with the qjs: prefix. Other changes that version 2.64 brings include native CMake compilation flags to disable specific modules to shrink the final binary size. Users can delete unwanted ASCII logo files directly from the source directory before building to save additional space. The format engine now boasts ANSI-escape awareness, meaning you can center text with the new vertical bar specifier without breaking colored outputs. Haiku users receive preliminary support for boot manager, window manager theme, screen brightness, and other basic properties. Finally, the Linux edition now extracts desktop wallpaper and theme details from the modern COSMIC desktop environment.
